Fontainebleau Race 2 - De Sermaise Hurdle
The form of those who have had a run doesn't set a daunting standard and it's perhaps wise to side with a newcomer in this contest and the pick of them is MAITRE ENCHANTEUR (5) who is by superstar jumps sire No Risk At All and looks a very interesting runner on breeding. Market confidence will be crucial. BANSHEE BREEZE (10) represents the top stable of Mikael Seror and has a fine jumping pedigree. One to consider. Stablemate STAR GAZER (9) is worth a market check being by Doctor Dino and is worth monitoring. STECASTER (4) comes from the Gabriel Leenders yard and must be taken very seriously despite the inexperience.
